Background

This NPY analog is a highly potent and selective ligand for Y? receptors in different cell lines and tissues. It has therefore been used to detect the NPY/PYY receptor subtype distribution; e.g.; in rat brain. The peptide is also active in vivo; showing an even higher potency than NPY in increasing blood pressure in anesthetized rats
